Y’all may be probably bored with this vibe by now but…SHRUG. These kind of programmes can be truly enlightening when you had an idea about what you are looking at. I’ve long disagreed with the MSM History of BathHouses. The “Romans” were famous for them (!?) So – in the History of History we have […]

Cow & Chicken
